When my "baby" turned 30, he wanted a cake that looked like Rupp Arena, the home court of the University of Kentucky Wildcats. He used to play in the pep band and loves the place. The sheet cake it sits on is chocolate with buttercream icing. The stands are chocolate covered in fondant with sprinkles for the people. The court is a FBCT. I have had some bad luck lately with cakes I planned and planned on. This one was made up as I went along, and I was pretty happy with the way it turned out. My son did ask why I didn't add the second tier of seats!!!

I'm going to try this cake this weekend for my 8 year old nephew. He was in Rupp Arena for the first time a couple of months ago and he is in awe. Thanks for the picture, I hope mine looks as good as yours.

Thank you for your help for my son's cake. It didn't turn out quite as nice as yours, but he liked it.
